We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

I actually really like Guyer. I moved here at the end of sophomore year after Spring Break and it was an easy move. Classes are cool and the teachers aren't that bad. They actually seem to care about you as a student. Well, at least the teachers I've had. The food is better than any other school I've been to and I liked it here so far.

As someone who graduated from Guyer High school last school year, I would say overall the school is good. The teachers I had were attentive and were very oriented around the success of the students. The AP and honors teachers prepare students well for collegiate level learning. The food wasn't great, but what school food is?

My experience with Guyer High School has definitely been a journey, I have played baseball all 4 years and I have grown as a baseball player in a huge way. Our coaching staff in all sports is amazing and we have made a run every year deep in playoffs. Other then that, the school it's self is great and the safety is very good and well maintained.

My children have had the worse experience at this school. Bullying is out of control and to make things worse administration calls bullying another issue of drama. If there was a zero to rate this school I would.

The classes are not very well structured. Most of them don't teach in a way that would benefit the future of the majority of students. There are a lot of bad teachers, and a lot of stuff is tolerated that shouldn't be. The campus is old, and not very well kept up, besides basic cleaning. The electiv...
